TomAto, Tomahto

Well, pre-2009 Kelly used to let her plants die a slow death from lack of watering or over-watering. Then, Lisa and Rob gave me a magic houseplant for Christmas. It requires very little watering and when it appears wilted and done when I forget to water it, if I give it a little drink it pops right back up again in no time! I really think it is magic! Anyway, it gave me a little gardening mo-jo. : ) We planted tomatoes, strawberries, and jalepano plants in the spring and they are doing wonderfully! Over 3 tomato plants I have 45 tomatoes growing. And they are the size of the tomatoes one would buy in the store so we will be having homemade spaghetti sauce, salsa, and who knows what else for quite some time! If you want some tomatoes, just ask!
